taste

Thats the info I require , cant go to a place if the water is unpalatable , man can only drink so much beer.

Axel, W.C.Fields was once asked if he wanted water with his whiskey to which he replied;

"Water, never touch the stuff, fish fornicate in it don't you know".

Kiwi , tis true tis true , but Im afraid that I dont bathe in beer or scotch ,,lol.

Your point is.They filter out the pubic hairs don't they ! lmao

Are they doing it/ going ahead with recycled water? 'xcuse my ignorance.. I never get to see the news or read the papers anymore.

Pumping of the clean water from Lytton is expected to start next February.

Can't see what the problem is with cleaned water from the sewage plant. Are you the same people that like 'fresh' stream water when you are camping?

If you are drinking Brisbane water now, you are drinking water from Wivenhoe dam, which has plenty of animal manure in it from the Brisbane Valley farms, and the output from Esk and Kilcoy sewage pants, to name a few. There might be at least 5 sewage plants upstream. Those sewage plants have a lower level of treatment than the clean water from the Lytton treatment plant. If 10% of future water supply going into Wivenhoe is coming from Lytton, the Wivenhoe dam will be 10% cleaner than it is now. :o)



Then it has to flow down the river to Mt Crosby where it is treated again before being pumped to Brisbane.

So what is all the fuss about?

Hey John, doesn't bother me at all.. Mark can't drink the tap water anyway. There is one particular brand of water that seems to be the best for him in regards to (taste yes) but what additives it doesn't have in (phosphorus, potassium etc) so I have to buy that. It isn't cheap with the amount of water that he drinks! (fluid intake not restricted yet). And I gotta admit, have never much liked the chlorine taste out of the tap water myself so I also drink and cook with the water I buy for him.

Ted , got filter on ct already ,does the job , but was actualy after the answer as per 1st reply ,, wont just be passing thru , more of a long term proposition so water taste and quality does come into play more so than just a top up of a caravan or c/t water tank.
